Priced Per Pair

Tweeter Specifications

Priced Per

Car Tweeters are typically sold in pairs so you will receive 2 tweeters for each purchase on tweeters marked "Priced Per Pair".
If a tweeter is marked "Priced Per Each" then the tweeter is sold individually and each purchase you make will result in 1 tweeter. High-powered tweeters are typically sold per each tweeter.

Pair

Tweeter Size

Refers to the size of the tweeter. Typically, smaller tweeters produces less output with higher frequency response.

1"

Tweeter Design

Designs such as cone, dome, semi-dome, balanced dome, and whizzer are most popular. Cone tweeters are simple, efficient and typically are the most reasonably priced. Dome tweeters are used in most home speakers, and provide a smoother and more accurate sound. Semi-dome design is one with a dome placed inside a cone. A Balanced dome driver is a semi-dome with equal reproduction area given the cone and dome portions of the driver. A whizzer tweeter is a separate tweeter cone driven by the voice coil of the woofer.

Dome

Tweeter Composition

Materials such as polypropylene, silk, cloth, and paper are the most common, where as many more recent tweeters are now manufactured with composites such as Aluminum, Titanium, Mylar, and other materials.

PEI is an acronym for "Polyetherimide" which is an amorphous, amber transparent, high-performance thermoplastic.

Mylar

Flush Mount

If the speaker or tweeter is flush mountable, then it can be installed flush to the mounting surface.

When installing a flush mount tweeter, make sure that there is enough room behind the mounting surface for the tweeter and magnet. Check the mounting depth with your specific vehicle.

Yes

Surface Mount

If the speaker or tweeter is surface mountable, then it can be installed to be raised above the mounting area.

When installing a surface mountable tweeters, make sure that there are no obstructions that will prevent the tweeter from being installed correctly.

Yes

Angled Mount

If the speaker or tweeter is able to be angle mounted, then the installed tweeter can be positioned at an angle. An angle mounted tweeter can improve the audible sound quality of your system.

When installing a angle mountable tweeters, make sure that there are no obstructions that will prevent the tweeter from being installed correctly.

Yes

Peak Power Handling

Peak power handling refers to the amount of power a speaker can handle during a brief musical burst. The RMS power range figure is a much more reliable rating for determining the speaker's power requirements. The Peak power handling specification is typically rated per speaker unless otherwise noted.

80 watts

RMS Power Handling

The RMS power is the amount of power the speaker requires to operate safely and properly. RMS Power Handling refers to the amount of power a speaker can handle on a continuous basis. We recommend powering your speakers or subwoofer with 80%-120% of its recommended RMS rating. The RMS power handling specification is typically rated per speaker unless otherwise noted.

40 watts

Sensitivity

An efficiency or sensitivity rating tells you how effectively a speaker converts power into sound. The higher the number, the more efficient the speaker and the louder it will play with the same input power. An efficient speaker helps you maximize your available power. Most sensitivity ratings measure the speaker's output with 1 watt of input, 1 meter from the speaker. Some speakers' sensitivity is measured with 2.83 volts of input, instead of 1 watt.
Efficiency (1w/1m) is not an accurate indicator of a subwoofer's output capability and should not be used as a comparison to other speakers or subwoofers to determine which one is "louder".

72.5 dB

Frequency Response

The range of frequencies the speaker will reproduce (lowest frequency to the highest). Bigger is better, meaning the wider the range, the better. The optimal range is 20 - 20,000 Hz (which is the range of human hearing).

2,500 - 22,000 Hz

Impedance (Per Voice Coil)

The load value (in ohms) that the speakers present to the amplifier per voice coil - the amount of resistance to the current flow. This is a key specification as subs wired in parallel or low impedances can create problems with your amplifier and potentially void all warranties. We encourage you to ask our support department prior to purchase if you do not understand which impedance level will suit your application best.

4 ohms

Top-Mount Depth

The depth when installed on top of the mounting surface. Measured from the bottom of the speaker's magnet to the bottom of the mounting holes on the rim of the speaker.

57/64"

Bottom-Mount Depth

The depth when installed from the bottom of the mounting surface. Measured from the bottom of the speaker's magnet to the top of the mounting holes on the rim of the speaker.

49/64"

Cutout Dimensions

Refers to the dimensions of the hole, measured in inches or millimeters, required to contain the speaker.

1-27/32 x 1-27/32

Hi-Res Audio Compatible

This feature refers to if the product is capable of Hi-Res Audio (HRA) playback.

I ordered these only to replace the blown tweeters in my VW. Install was interesting, just positive and negative wires which were unbelievably thin, must have been 28 or 30 guage. I think i counted about 15 or 20 copper stands. Sound quality was on par with with the stock speakers. I think for $40 i should have gotten tweeters that sounds at least a little better than stock. Since then i have upgraded entire system; new HU, 2 amps, new componenst all around. I wouldn't buy these again.

The 4 way 6+9 rockford fosgate p1469 speakers sound great on just a aftermarket headunit. I don't have an amp hooked up to them but I can imagine how much better they would sound. I'm happy running them without an amp.

These tweeters complete my sound system!! I had a buddy that had these in his car and once I heard them and the difference that they made I had to get some! They sound amazing, and they really completed my sound spectrum that I was going for. I installed them myself in about 30 minutes. I definitely recommend this product! You can never go wrong with Rockford fosgate!!

Rockford Fosgate has always been quality, but with most well known names after time, that is all it is, a name with poor quality. The R1T-S are a poor excuse to be called Rockford Fosgate. Professionally installed and matched with the proper MTX amps they never had the sound quality. These were the component speakers system 6 1/2 mid bass with the R1T-S tweeters. Now looking to replace one of the tweeters, I'm left with holes in my new doors and trying to find a better tweeter to fill the holes is a nightmare. Im left with having to purchase the same tweeters just to fill the hole. No stars or raves about this item.

These were good for the money. i installed them in my car for some add sound and with the built in x over they were easy to install. i've always been a fan of rockford fosgate and would recommend this product to anyone looking for some tweeters.

I am very pleased with these speakers. I installed them myself, very easy install. Also, they are a great value and they sound amazing! Definitely an upgrade from stock speakers. I have all Rockford Fosgate speakers in my car with exception to my Kicker subs. They are one of the best quality speakers on the market today.

i had hooked these in with the 4 inch Rockford's I have in the dash both hooked up to just the head unit and both have bass blockers on them and i hooked them up angle mount so the tweeter is positioned towards the people and boy these make a difference the music is crisp and clear the power gets separated between the 2 that's also a plus so the distortion or cut out of the speaker and tweeter is minimal i cant wait till my 6x9s and another set of tweeters for the back come in imam hook those 2 setups to amps tho it will sound nice and crisp with these lil puppies

I bought the tweeters in order to replace the stock ones in my car.
Indeed the new performance on my car hi-fi increased 100%.
Now I can listen the high frequencies at any song where was dissapeared before. Great performance

I installed these on the plastic snail panels on my 2007 saturn ion. Simply drilled 2 holes in the plastic with a dremel, the tweeter kit includes metal rings that form to any shaped backing which made installation extremely easy.

Sound quality was much better than anticipated! Built-in Hi Pass Crossovers allow for the tweeters to be piggy backed off stock speaker wires (upgraded my door speakers too to compliment the tweeters). Tweeters are VERY LOUD, product extremely crisp highs and ultra highs. Have yet to hear them crackle or fade out on an ultrahigh note. I actually had to reduce the front level volume in my vehicle to compensate for the new speakers and tweeters. They do not rob your slaved speakers of any power at all, and I am using the stock Head Unit from GM still!

Got these for 29.99 on sale... ridiculous price, SO good for what you get. Even at full price these are still worth it. HTH

can you tell meexactly how to hook them up what bass blocker i will need?

A shopper on Oct 27, 2014

Best Answer:Hello,

There isn't an 'exact' bass blocker that is to be used. It depends on what frequency You wish to 'block'. IF you wish to ~2,500hz and Less [following the "Frequency Response" of the tweeter] then you seek a blocker like the Xscorpion BB14 [14uF]. WE would like to be a bit higher, if possible, with the PAC BB-6PR [~7uF] .

If you don't have speaker wiring adapters specific to your vehicle, then just hook up positive to positive, and negative to negative. If you are unsure of which wire is positive and which is negative, use a multimeter, or have it installed by a professional. Use a 600-800Hz cut off bass blocker for these.

do these tweeters have a built in crossover? can i connect them to the speaker wires and go?

A shopper on Oct 26, 2014

Best Answer:Hello,

No, the R1T-S DO NOT have built-in or in-line crossovers. You may still be able to install them into an OEM location , however, IF you are implying you wish to replace an OEM Tweeter. This is because most vehicle will have already split the frequencies to their Tweeter.

well in my car it had a premium sound system in it it had a 4 inch speaker in the bottom with a tweeter and a seperate magnet a few inches from it and then up twards the top of the door was a little 3 inch speaker it looks like its just for highs it had a set of wires going to the 4 inch and small tweeter and had some speaker wire coming from the deck attatched to it but i am thinking it was a seperate tweeter cause it also had a black bass blocker thing attatched to the negative port but i cut it so thats still with the speaker so all that is in there now is the speaker wire for it so could i hook it up to just the speaker wire like that?
